That should work fine.
 
How large a tank are you moving?

It sounds like a good plan; something that I’ve seen others regret in the past is putting too many corals in too little water. Plastic totes are pretty cheap and fairly easy to deal with; I used some recently to switch out tanks and it worked really well. Gave everything a good berth.

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
